We describe a “bag-of-rectangles” method for representing and recognizing human actions in videos. In this method, each human pose in an action sequence is represented by orien...
This chapter proposes a representation of rigid three-dimensional (3D) objects in terms of local affine-invariant descriptors of their images and the spatial relationships between ...

We study the 3D reconstruction of a binary scene from X-ray tomographic data. In the special case of a compact and uniform object lying in a uniform background, the scene is entir...
Spatial Pyramid Representation (SPR) is a widely used method for embedding both global and local spatial information into a feature, and it shows good performance in terms of gene...
Statistical shape-and-texture appearance models employ image metamorphosis to form a rich, compact representation of object appearance. They achieve their efficiency by decomposin...
